Queensland Homicide Victims Support Group (QHVSG)
Since its inception in 1995, QHVSG volunteers have provided support to members who have lost a loved one to homicide.

If you are looking to make a difference or develop your understanding of court processes, QHVSG encourages you to apply to become a volunteer.
